The O2 EII® is ergonomically designed, and equipped with several features to ensure ease of use, and reliability. The instrument has been designed to be held in the left hand to enable ease of use when checking your tank. It is fitted with a large digital display and operates from an internal temperature compensated electrochemical oxygen sensor. Power is provided by a 9V battery which will last for approximately 1 year before replacement is necessary. The O2 EII® will automatically switch off after 10 minutes to ensure battery life is not compromised if the instrument is accidentally turned on. The O2 EII® is water and drop resistant. Designed specifically for the diving industry – whether you may be a Sport (NITROX), Commercial or Military diver- where hostile environmental conditions are the norm not the exception. Your O2 EII® is supplied ready to use, all you need to do is push in the EII adapter. MO2-801-06 O2 EII® User Manual Page 5 ANALOX O2 EII® PORTABLE OXYGEN ANALYSER 3.0 Operation 3.1 Controls The analyser is fitted with an ‘On’ button located on the side of the unit, when held in your left hand the button should sit comfortably under your thumb. To turn the unit on press the button once, the unit will automatically turn off 10 minutes after the button has been pressed, as a result if the O2 EII® is accidentally turned on your battery will not be drained of power. When it is switched on the analyser's display will show an oxygen reading do not use the O2 EII® before calibration (see Section 3.2). Switch on The ‘On’ button also acts as a hold button, to freeze the reading on the display press the ‘on’ button once. A ‘:’ symbol will appear to show the instrument is holding the reading. To cancel the hold press the ‘on’ button once, the ‘:’ symbol will disappear and the instrument will monitor ambient O2. Reading held Reading released monitoring ambient O2 The low battery warning is a shown by ‘L’ on the display. When present, change the battery before using the instrument (see Section 5.0, After Sales Service). ‘L’ low battery symbol A waterproof calibration knob is located on the front. Turn it fully from left to right and then fully left, the reading should increase and then decrease. (If the reading does not change see Section 4.0, Quick Check). WARNING Do NOT use when the LOW BATTERY symbol is on! MO2-801-06 O2 EII® User Manual Page 6 ANALOX O2 EII® PORTABLE OXYGEN ANALYSER 3.2 Air Calibration WARNING The analyser is sensitive to oxygen partial pressure. Calibration must always be carried out at the same atmospheric pressure as oxygen measurement. Air calibration is essential before every use and is performed as follows. 1. Ensure that the sensor saver is not in place and that the EII adapter is fitted. The adapter simply pushes into the sensor aperture. 2. Expose the analyser to clean air for two minutes and adjust the calibration knob until the display reads the correct value using the oxygen compensation chart (you can find this chart on the inside of the back cover). If this is not possible refer to the note below or to Sections 4.0, Quick Check and 5.0, After Sales Service. Calibration in clean air The analyser is now ready for oxygen measurement. Note: at very high altitude, it is possible that normal calibration is not achievable. For users who intend to use the analyser at altitude, please refer to our web site for additional technical information. MO2-801-06 O2 EII® User Manual Page 7 ANALOX O2 EII® PORTABLE OXYGEN ANALYSER 3.3 Checking your Tank The Analox O2 EII® comes complete with a unique sampling dome which allows you to directly apply the analyser to the outlet on your nitrox tank. 1. Ensure the sensor saver is removed. Push the sampling dome into the sensor aperture. 2. Ensure the Analox O2 EII® has been calibrated as per the instructions in Section 3.2. 3. Very slowly open the pillar valve with your right hand until gas can just be heard quietly hissing out. Open the tank until the Nitrox is heard gently hissing out 4. Once the pillar valve has been opened and the nitrox is heard gently hissing, hold the O2 EII® in your left hand and press the sampling dome firmly against the tank outlet. Take a direct reading from your tank WARNING Open tank valve EXTREMELY CAREFULLY Before the O2 EII® is applied 5. Close the pillar valve after fifteen seconds when a stable reading is observed on the O2 EII®. MO2-801-06 O2 EII® User Manual Page 8 ANALOX O2 EII® PORTABLE OXYGEN ANALYSER 6. 7. If in doubt repeat the procedure taking care to ensure a very low gas flow. For ease of use when sampling several tanks, the O2 EII® is fitted with a hold feature. Once a stable reading has been observed, press the on button to hold this reading. The O2 EII® can then be moved away from the tank to enable you to record the O2 reading. To cancel the reading press the on button once. Reading held 8. It is important to note that after a few seconds of the gas flow being stopped the reading will begin to change towards the level in the surrounding air of 20.9% O2 you should therefore take the reading or press the hold button while flow is ON. WARNING Very high flows may pressurise the sensor and inaccurate readings or sensor damage will result.

MO2-801-06 O2 EII® User Manual Page 12 ANALOX O2 EII® PORTABLE OXYGEN ANALYSER 5.3 General Care Although designed to be water resistant the O2 EII® should not be intentionally immersed in liquid or left outside unprotected. The O2 EII® is built to resist the effects of day to day shocks and drops but remember it is a precision oxygen analyser and should be looked after carefully to give long trouble free service. To clean the O2 EII® use a damp soft cloth. Protect the O2 EII® from long periods of direct sunlight and do not subject it to high or low temperature extremes. The sensor in the O2 EII® is an electrochemical device and contains a caustic electrolyte. Always check to make sure that it is not leaking and do not allow it onto any part of your body or clothing. In the event that you do come into contact with the electrolyte wash the contaminated part with copious amounts of water -see Section 6.0, Safety Information. Analox 9100-9220-9B type Oxygen Sensor WARNING If after handling the sensor your fingers or other parts of your body feel slippery or stings wash with a lot of water. If stinging persists get medical attention! Refer Section 6.0, Safety Information 5.4 Sensor Handling Information O2 EII® oxygen sensors are normally supplied in sealed packs. Before the pack is opened check that the sensor has not leaked. The sensors are themselves sealed and do not under normal circumstances present a health hazard however if leakage of the potassium hydroxide electrolyte has occurred use rubber gloves and wear chemical splash goggles to handle and clean up. Rinse contaminated surfaces with water. If anybody comes into contact with the electrolyte, please refer to Section 6.0, Safety Information.
